New York post-punk revivalists Interpol have announced that they will release El Pintor, their fifth studio album and first new material in four years, this September.

El Pintor (Spanish for “The Painter”, as well as an anagram of Interpol) will drop in all markets on 8th September, according to their website, with our US brethren getting the release one day later. Suck it.

El Pintor follows the band’s 2010 self-titled release. The Paul Banks fronted group have posted a short statement to their official website, announcing the album and sharing details of its recording.

“We wrote & recorded the bulk of the album in NYC and finished mixing it in London during the early part of this year,” the statement reads, before name-dropping some renowned recording engineers.

“The album was recorded at Electric Lady Studios & Atomic Sound by Mr James Brown and mixed by Mr Alan Moulder at Assault & Battery studios. We had a lot of fun making this record and can’t wait for you to hear it.”

Interpol will hit Australian shores in July to perform at Splendour In The Grass 2014. Check out a behind-the-scenes clip of El Pintor‘s recording sessions alongside its tracklisting below, as well as live footage of new songs My Desire and Anywhere.
